AS IF THE NHS DID NOT HAVE ENOUGH TO COPE WITH.........

NHS trusts are facing a new challenge in their cash strapped struggle to provide a high standard service. Now hospitals are faced with a sharp rise of 21% (£ 322 millions) in business rates on their property. As an example, the Queen Elizabeth, Birmingham will face a tax bill rise from £2.8m per year to£6.9m unless MPs and ourselves can persuade the Government to relent. One solution would be to allow NHS properties to claim charity status reductions of 80% as some private hospitals eg the Nuffield Trust already do but so far that sensible suggestion has been rejected by Jeremy Hunt.
